Because SMW has had only a short run, theres only really been one absolute legend in its ranks, a certain Mr R Jones, and he would beat Ward and any other SMW. Other guys might test him but cant see how they can beat him - Calzaghe (weaker skillset all round), Toney (mindset weaknesses), McCallum(poor defensively) for instance. If SMW had been going since 1880 then you would easily throw more names in the hat that would beat Andre.

At 175 its too early to tell, Ward hasnt fought at that weight yet, but its a rich division and there should be several candidates that would beat him, it stands to logic.

At 160 there are several who should beat him, the division is full of legends. But Ward would give them a hell of a battle, even Hagler.
